A post over on Reddit’s Diablo 4 community made me think in a broader sense the wasted opportunities or things that need a serious upgrade in their implementation. On the post, the writer wished he was able to use Mercenaries for the Citadel (affectionately known by the community as “the raid”). It was something when…

Obviously, I’ve been playing Wizardry 6 this entire time with all my recent blog posts. But I did mention that at some point I was going to try the Diablo 4 Season 7. Well, I did pause for a day to check out the new Season 7. And while it was fun during the time…

I’ve been reading the patch notes posted to determine what I want to play for next season. I have a few ideas based on skill modifications, nerfs, buffs, new items and aspects. Also, I’ve seen the new season theme and wanted to post my thoughts on that as well.

Today, the Diablo 4 developers held another campfire to talk about some mid season updates. Truth be told, there was very little compelling content outside of “we’ll buff underperforming classes/abilities.” I was really hoping that this mid season update would add old content or provide some novel reason to continue playing the season but nothing…

As a way to get my mind away from certain depressing issues, I decided to level up a Sorcerer. There’s a few builds on my list that I’d like to try out one being a Chain Lightning build. Obviously, after playing the super awesome Lightning Spear/Frozen Orb build from last season, I’m going to be…

Deciding that I should give the Spirit Wave Necromancer a try, I went from my Druid to Necromancer and reconfigured her from Minions to Spirit Wave with some gear after doing a couple of Helltide runs to get workable pieces. The main piece I had waiting around was a Blood Artisan’s Cuirass which has the…

One of the things I wanted to try this season was a Boulder Druid build. In previous seasons, the Boulder skill was bugged and caused the build to be broken in a bad manner. Finally, it seems that they fixed that bug (where I read it was occurring when the Boulder hit a wall or…

Figuring why not, I decided to go with a Minion Necromancer today. Although my enthusiasm isn’t really high on playing yet another Minion Necromancer, I decided that I could level easily and swap builds later on. Before that though, I altered my Barbarian from Hammer of the Ancients to Whirlwind / Dust Devil / Earthquake…

I found out an easy way to level an alt by using a higher difficulty’s Tree of Whisper’s Cache. Not only do you gain XP but gear at a higher level. For an alt, this is just another way to help gear up quickly. For instance, I managed to receive a few Ancestral items to…

Whelp, it finally dropped: a solid Tyrael’s Might. I believe the GA was on the damage reduction and I ended up critically hitting the damage reduction bonus twice and max to all resistance once. So my damage reduction on the Tyrael’s Might was around 50% while the all resistance hit close to 85%. With the…
